Ending November With a Thankful Heart

It may be last minute, but I'm sharing the remaining days of November blessings! As one who loves to begin new projects, challenges and ideas, but struggles to finish, this November counting daily blessings has been completed.

This November instead of seeking daily blessings (which is so important), my desire was to be reminded of the promises of God, mainly in who He is and His attributes. Here is the remainder of November:

November 20: Forgiveness. Being forgiven by God and overwhelmed enough to pass it on.

November 21: God of Comfort. No trial is in vain, the comfort given to us, can be shared with others.

November 22: Holy: God is Holy and the Holiest of all. Hard to grasp, but brings awe.

November 23: The Fruit of the Spirit. found in Galatians 5...Love, Joy, Peace, Patience, Kindness...the qualities we want to grow in our lives!

November 24: God Reigns...above all

November 25: Faithful and True

November 26: Giver of Wisdom

November 27; Our Creator

November 28: Full of splendor and majesty

November 29: The God of Hope...my favorite verse Romans 15:13 "Now may the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, that you may abound in hope by the power of the Holy Spirit."

November 30: The God who gives rest to our souls.

Each day these were written in a notebook, but not to simply jot down and forget. These are precious reminders of how wonderful God is and that He provides all we need.

Sometimes We Score, Sometimes We Block

Our family is in the midst of little league soccer season. My youngest son is playing and his enthusiasm is contagious. He is pretty good at the sport, but what makes it so great is that he loves it! He counts the days until the next game or practice. He loves his coach and teammates. He has moved up an age level this year and the players are working more like team, passing to each other and watching out for each other during play. During the last game, my son scored two goals, they were the only goals of the game. In today's game the team scored eight goals. My son came up afterwards to me and said, "I didn't score today, but I blocked". What a powerful truth those words can hold. In life, sometimes we score, sometimes we block. Sometimes we do great things, we excel, we achieve, we meet our goal - we score! There are also times we see the needs of others, sometimes they are sad or hurting, we block their hits. We look out for them so they can score. We...

WFW – Write It On My Heart

This is the covenant I will make with the house of Israel after that time, declares the Lord. I will put My laws in their minds and write them on their hearts. I will be their God, and they will be My people. Hebrews 8:10 On a recent field trip to a museum featuring the days gone by, we sat in an old schoolroom as the teacher introduced us to the quill pen and bottle of ink. She cautioned us to use extreme caution using the ink and told us that if it got on our skin or clothes, it would not come off. This reminded me of this beautiful promise from Hebrews. God told His people he would put His law in their minds and write it on their hearts. This is a covenant which cannot be broken. He loves us and wants us to know Him through His Word. As we read more and more of His Word, it becomes w...
